Damn dude, you are trying to find every angle out there to get folks off their current ROM's. I just said i don't see myself flashing anything until ICS drops haha

Big fan of your roms, love to see the lock screen mod added to this rom. Keep it up, and thank you.

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] oubravs2b:
Yes it is! Blazing!
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] PhantomHacker:
Probably won't be added causes hot reboots. Feel free to flash it though; it should work fine. You can also flash the toggle mods.

Maybe this will keep me busy enough to forget about the iPhone 4s...

Yes, this Rom is very fast, got through my restore of apps with no problems(apps only etc). everything is very stable, smooth across the board. have the processor at 800mhz for a little run, and everything is faster than ever. great work Phantom. glad I'll be able to underclock without really noticing!
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] jhgti:
Will try it but you are correct sir, I like it as it is! Fast and ics look alike.

May I ask why the stock kernel
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] PhantomHacker:
Stability and the rogue recovery. You can flash an alternative kernel if you'd like.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] bigtoysrock:
CIQ does not work on Blazer. It only will show those 2 files cause if they are removed it breaks the phone. They are ONLY there so the phone will run. There has been alot of questions about this. Im sure Phantom would not advertise the removal of CIQ if he actually did not. If it (CIQ) was operational it would have way more files than 2.

Sweet can't wait love this rom and the theme best one out. do you plan on adding anything to the theme and is this update going to include the volume button as the camera capture button. :D
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] jhgti:
This rom has been running so good with no LOS, battery life is great, that I wonder if I will flash the new update ......... OK I will. Cannot wait for it. I wonder if its is going to run o the stock kernel EG30, in my case I don't see a necessity to flash the updated kernal.

IPhone killer
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] smccall:
It will run with the stock EG30. I've been running the new kernel and its been fantastic. Have you had loss in the past before you ran this rom.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] rpnunez:
Please, either add the Lockscreen Settings mod, or just change the color of the time in the Notifications bar to that ICS blue.

I'm prettty sure we all want ICSish as much as possible (atleast I know I do) :D
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] dschachm:
Have yet to understand why people like the volume keys as anything other than zoom.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] smccall:
I like it because you can take a pic so much easier and you can take pics and better angles its hard sometimes because the pics I take and at the angles I take them at I can't always see the button on the screen. I guess its just a preference. :D

I might not release 2.3.6 today, but I will update 2.3.4 if I don't.

No don't add the lock screen mod. I've seen to many people complain of problems. This from is awesome. If u want it u can push the files that u need or use widget locker or go locker.

So far this is a good rom but I am having trouble getting gps to work. I tried using gps status to fix it but it didn't help at all, any suggestions?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] smccall:
I agree with that it causes to many problems. If you want a free lock screen with different options get magic locker they have the ics theme and others. Grab it from the market.

---------- Post added at 03:06 PM ---------- Previous post was at 03:03 PM ----------

Does it not work at all or just not accurate. If it doesn't work at all could be kernel related I have no issues with it.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] b8180:
It takes a few minutes to work and when it does it will only get to "within 90 meters" accuracy.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] rpnunez:
Thanks all for the lockscreen advice, will def check those apps out.

Also: I can confirm GPS having difficulty to lock (and searching/attempting to lock for about 15 minutes while I was actually in need of a GPS).
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] smccall:
try telenav from the market its very accurate.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] jhgti:
Yes but this my fist time running the stock kernal no complaint, my only complaint about the update you cannot go back to EG30.

E4GT=IPhone killer
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] jhgti:
I had asked before PH said its not added because of hot reboots, I did flashed it and had that issue along, enough to regret it lol

I agree. Telenav has been surprisingly great

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] frankquattrone:
One of the best features of the Samsungs are their native video players. I'd rather not install something else. Plus, I'm not convinced that Phantom took this out intentionally because part of Blazer since I started using it at 3.7. Hoping it was an overlooked bug.

So, Phantom, is this a bug that will be fixed or is this the way 4.1 is meant to work?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] steve97ta:
You shouldn't lose data if u only wipe the caches. If thats what your worried about?

You're fine. It all depends on usage. Typically, people getting 24+ hour usage dont have high screen on times since the phone is mostly in an idle state.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] HareyCarey:
Try setcpu and use profiles and undervolting(but not too much, now don't get carried away.) Some people like Desperado kernel or Gunslinger, er cetera, er cetera. I prefer Gunslinger and using setcpu. Some people use juice defender too. You'll pick up stuff and tips just reading people's posts.

My brightness is on the automatic settings provided by the power control widget.

And that's weird I just checked my modem and its at el26. Isn't that really old? I know i've updated it before. but I use calks format .zip to wipe my phone when switching roms I wonder if that resets the modem...
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] nibrwr:
It doesn't reset the modem. Modems are in a sticky in the dev section

Weird I don'T remember putting the modem back

Edit* - I put EL29 in there as well has hitman 1.5 kernel. Hope to see some improvement
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] s2kdriver:
I noticed this after a clean install and after I had reloaded (from scratch) all my desired apps. It wouldn't settle down. So I decided before I would start all over again to just reflash the ROM on top of the current setup.

Doing this really helped eliminating my battery drain. I went from 200-300 mAh drain when sitting idle to 60-90 mAh. I think one or more of my apps modified something in the default ROM settings. Of course, it could also be a coincidence, but it may be worth a try. Just boot to recovery, wipe caches, and flash the ROM. You shouldn't loose anything as the ROM only wipes what is required to install.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] alwaysbelieve1:
How do you do that?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] HareyCarey:
Go to Settings>Display>Brightness and just deselect auto brightness and lower the brightness all the way or to your liking. I have it set all the way down and the screen is still plenty bright.

Ya, I am having horrible battery life myself. Even when my phone is idle I lose about 10% per hour but I too only get one bar at my house. It is weird though because on Strong Steves Odexed blue I had the same signal but I would lose about 1% per hour. Any ideas? I am thinking I need to try a new Kernal. What is the most used kernal around that people report has the best battery life?

Anyone have their screen go black and unsponsive when turning on/waking from sleep? (not from charging -I've seen reports due to the charging block for that)

If looks as if the screen is black but the phone is still on because I can hear the clicks as I try to adjust the volume.

I just press the power button to reboot the phone and the problem goes away.

I saw someone mention a similar problem in this thread in Dec but never saw a response. This may be an isolate problem with my phone.

I just flashed from 3.9 to 4.1 and did a clean wipe. I even went back and Odin'd EL29 as well but had it happen again this morning.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] rbtrucking:
Ya, that is called the sleep of death and it used to ALWAYS happen to me. Honestly like 10 times a day I thought my phone was broken! What root method did you use? When this happened to me I returned to stock and re rooted using sfhubs latest instructions without the yellow triangle and my phone has been running flawlessly ever since which was a good 2-3 months ago. Not one random reboot, not one sleep of death. I would look into that.
